Today we celebrated my dad's 60th birthday. He knew we were coming over to celebrate, but had no idea Rochelle and her kids were coming too as well as a professional photographer. We took beautiful family photos with our backyard as our back drop. There is no other beautiful landscape than my dad's garden. I spent a majority of my childhood playing in my backyard and I love that my kids have the opportunity to do the same. It just seemed fitting to have our photos taken there.
After our portraits were complete, we went for a swim in the spa and played the afternoon away. We had a fitting Italian dinner with amazing appetizers and of course cupcakes for dessert.
After dinner Rochelle and her kiddos hit the road to go back home, but my family and I stayed the night. We watched a movie in the living room with our projector. We popped popcorn and stayed up late. It was a beautiful day to celebrate a beautiful man. My dad is the definition of patience and kindness. He is loyal to his family and I have learned so much from him. I have enjoyed growing up with a fun-loving and sweet daddy and I have enjoyed getting to know him since I have become an adult. I don't know what I would do without him. He showed me what to expect from a spouse and how a man should treat a woman. He is truly amazing and I am proud to call him my dad.
